As summer wears on, those of you who never (or under) water your yard should rethink that strategy. An extremely dry foundation can crack and cause significant damage. Take the necessary steps so you don’t have a nightmare on your hands in the future.

Scorching temperatures cause the ground to shrink and when that happens, homes can settle. Cracks can appear along the walls and doors may start to stick. Water at least two inches once a week or more but not right up against the foundation, so that the water doesn't seep down into the cracks in the soil against the house. Once wet, the soil will swell and expand back against the foundation.
